Way back when, on a plane, somewhere between Thailand and Calcutta, Lowell, the Radley founder, and Ann, our longest serving designer, were brainstorming ideas for the 2002 Spring Summer Collection.
Flicking through magazines for inspiration they stopped on a picture of a line of British beach huts. Struck by the simplistic beauty and summer infused colours, a light bulb moment occurred!
As soon as the plane touched down they rushed straight to the factory to bring the image to life on what was to become the first Picture Bag.
Since then we have looked at everyday beauty to inspire us, each of our Picture Bags tells a little story beautifully.
